Eddie and I met when we were 16 years old during highschool. We had such a fun friendship and always knew there was something special about our relationship, so it didn’t surprise us that we ended up reconnecting right after college. We had spent a little over two years dating when Eddie proposed to me in front of family and friends at a surprise birthday party he planned for me. Not only did he give me a ring but also a key to what would be our new home. Yes – a ring and a house in the same day (he really set a high standard for birthdays right off the bat haha)! We exchanged vows in a beautiful mountain-top chapel in front of the people that we love most and started married life.
From the beginning of our relationship, being parents was a dream and adoption was one way we hoped to grow our family in the future. While the traditional road to a family didn’t work out due to fertility challenges, we knew the right time for adoption would one day come - and now here we are! We think the long journey to this point in our lives will give us an even deeper appreciation for getting to be parents one day and we hope any children who join our family will feel even more loved because of it. We don’t take things too seriously and we laugh a lot! We enjoy game nights and weekend road trips, festivals and concerts, trying out new restaurants and hanging out with our family and friends. I love how easy it is for us to just relax and have fun no matter where we are. 

Thank you for showing interest in our adoption journey!
